Property Description
Beautifully remodeled tri-level brick townhome in the highly rated Sauganash Elementary School neighborhood of Chicago, without the hassle of monthly HOA fee and low taxes, which currently does not include homeowner or senior exemptions. The property features a detached garage, an additional parking space with ample street parking and a fenced yard. This freshly painted home features a spacious living and dining room combination with gleaming refinished hardwood floors, along with an updated half bathroom on the main level. The modern kitchen is highlighted by white shaker cabinets, stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, and a stylish backsplash. The second level offers two generously sized bedrooms with hardwood flooring, each large enough to accommodate a king-sized bed and additional furniture, as well as a thoughtfully updated full bathroom. The finished lower level, complete with luxury vinyl plank flooring, provides versatile additional living space-ideal for a family room, recreation area, home gym, office, or potential third bedroom. Additional updates include a new water heater, upgraded electrical panel, and abundant storage. The property features a detached 2-car garage, an additional parking space with ample street parking and a fenced yard. The townhome is close to Whole Foods, Billy Caldwell Golf Course, shopping, forest preserves, coffee shops, and a variety of restaurants. Access to I-94 interchange on Peterson Ave is less than a 1/2 mile away. Pet-friendly and truly move-in ready-this is a MUST-SEE HOME!
